Message to the new school leaders


I would like to congratulate Zubin, Huda, Rose Mary and Mishal for winning in this year's school election. Zubin and Huda are new students. However, they have easily captured the hearts of students and have won their trust.

To: Zubin and Huda,
Please be acutely aware that students from the lower classes will come to see you as models to emulate. To be leaders of the school is a God-given chance to show other students, by way of example, how to take care of others, how to support and cooperate with teachers, and most of all, how to make the institution proud. As you share your time, talents and skills for the good of the school, in the process, you are the ones who get  formed into becoming better persons. That's the prize of self-giving. Ultimately, you are the recipients of your own good works. The work that is given to us, once done with dedication and commitment, transforms us. So, if you do what your posts demand, you would be changed persons at the end of the year.

To: Rose Mary and Mishal,
I have known you since you were in Std IV and you have no idea how much glad I am to see how you have grown into mature individuals. Both of you have great potentials to make a difference. Be confident. Be active. Be proactive. Be visible during school activities. Lead others passionately, but in humility. I know you will not fail.

To: Those who did not make it
As the cliche goes, "winning is not everything". A person does not need a leadership post in order to do something for other students or for the school. Greater is the person who goes out of his or her way to support and assist others even when he/she is not obliged to do so. You may not have won in the elections but, that doesn't mean you cannot do what the new leaders are tasked to do. You can still shine and be leaders in your own unique ways. You can still make your mark and be remembered with affection.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!

Congratulations to the new school representatives. :)The whole school would be watching you, and that gives you the responsibility to be the right example for all the students.
And I would like to suggest that you take help from the ones who competed for the election, working as a team would be much more effective. :) < It works! :) >
Good luck! :)

Leadership is about giving...its about playing by the rules...its about humility...its about obliging...and most importantly walking the talk .

You have it you .....God Bless!
